The main result of the paper is a quasi-polynomial algorithm for generating
the external points (vertices) of the Knapsack Polytope . The complexity of this
algorithm (for fixed dimension) is better than the complexity of all the known quasipolynomial
algorithms for this problem. The idea is similar to this one used by Haies
and Larman [2]. Our improvement is based on obtaining of new upper bounds for the
number of the vertices of the Knapsack Polytope.
The algorithm can be applied directly to solve the Knapsack Problem with arbitrary
convex objective function.
